HI :) I've got a function (crude but works) that checks for a value in the url and then I call an image based on that value. if (isset($_GET['menu'])) { $img_pick = substr($_GET['menu'],0,1); } else { $img_pick = "1"; } echo "<img src=\"/images/mast_$img_pick.jpg\">"; What I'd like to do is check the directory 'images' first to see if 'mast_$img_pick.jpg' exists and if it doesn't, call a different image such as 'mast_default.jpg'. I'm sure this isn't hard, I'm just not sure how to start. TIA, verdon Ps. Please cc me if replying to list
